We get to know you at an individual level and work with you to set realistic recovery goals. Our genuine concern for your well-being helps us stay in tune with your comfort level and preferences during treatment. We modify therapy plans whenever necessary to keep your recovery moving forward.

Your safety is at the center of everything we do. We take the time to talk with you about different ways to stay safe during therapy and when you leave the hospital. We may share information about preventing falls, conserving your energy, creating a safe environment at home and protecting weak joints and muscles.

We work with physicians and experts from other St. Francis care programs, including our heart surgeons and joint replacement experts (orthopedists), to deliver seamless care. Working directly with your medical team helps us tailor treatments to meet your ongoing needs.

This treatment is helpful for patients who are having difficulty speaking, understanding or communicating after a recent stroke or brain injury. Speech therapy also helps patients overcome problems with swallowing.

We help you regain the skills and confidence necessary for independent living once you leave the hospital. Our occupational therapists help you adapt daily activities such as eating or getting dressed so you can complete them with little or no assistance. We care for patients with conditions that include vision problems and neurologic disorders such as Parkinson’s disease.

In the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), we deliver specialized care to newborns who were born early or experienced complications shortly after birth. We help our littlest patients achieve the highest level of functioning. Therapies can help babies feed more easily or relieve discomfort from orthopedic issues.
